Weed control

We carry out weed control throughout the city's public roads as a preventative maintenance programme.

Weed prevention

We carry out chemical weed control along all public roads as part of our preventative maintenance programme. All of our weed control is carried out by certified, professional weed control contractors.

We control weeds in the following places to prevent damage to Council property:

the joints and cracks found in footpaths

driveways (on public roads only)

kerb and channels

Request for no weed spray

You can designate the road reserve area in front of your property as a ‘No Spray’ area. This means that you have committed to maintain this area yourself. Once we receive your request, we'll remove the area from our weed spraying programme.
